Praise for NONPROFIT SUSTAINABILITY
"This is much more than a financial how-to book. It's a
nonprofit's guide to empowerment. It demystifies mission impact and
financial viability using The Matrix Map to provide strategic
options for any organization. A must-read for every nonprofit CEO,
CFO, and board member."
--Julia A. McClendon, chief executive officer, YWCA Elgin,
Illinois
"This book should stay within easy reaching distance and end up
completely dog-eared because it walks the reader through a
practical but sometimes revelatory process of choosing the right
mix of programs for mission impact and financial sustainability.
Its use is a practice in which every nonprofit should engage its
board once a year."
--Ruth McCambridge, editor in chief, "The Nonprofit Quarterly"
"Up until a few years ago, funding and managing a nonprofit was
a bit like undertaking an ocean voyage. Now, it's akin to
windsurfing--you must be nimble, prepared to maximize even the
slightest breeze, and open to modifying your course at a moment's
notice. Innovative executive directors or bold board members who
want their organization to be able to ride the big waves of the new
American economy must read this book."
--Robert L. E. Egger, president, DC Central Kitchen/Campus Kitchens
Project/V3 Campaign
